:27:25
Nothing ever surpassed
the rapture...
:27:27
of that first awakening.
:27:29
I might have been Adam...
:27:31
with the taste of apple
fresh in my mouth.
:27:34
I was looking at all the beauty
in the world...
:27:37
embodied in a single
female form...
:27:40
and I knew, with sudden
blinding certainty...
:27:43
this was it.
:28:12
We didn't leave the apartment
for three whole days after that.
:28:16
We were inseparable by day
and insatiable by night.
:28:20
Just lived on love
and stale croissants.
:28:24
She chucked her job.
:28:26
I couldn't bear
to part with her.
:28:29
"I'd been granted
a glimpse of heaven...
:28:31
"then dumped on the sidewalk
of rue d'Assas.
:28:34
"The gates of paradise
had opened...
:28:36
"only to slam in my face."
:28:38
But they opened again, no?
:28:40
They sure did, baby.
:28:42
Pretty wide, at that.
:28:44
Go on. Don't stop.
:28:45
That's all there is.
:28:47
What a pity.
I could listen to you forever.
